The governor lauded the district on achieving 88 per cent literacy rate in this remote area with ‘no report of insurgency in the area’ in the absence of fencing at the borders. He also congratulated the district administration as Jiribam is the cleanest town among the towns with less than 23,000 population in India, Northeast Zone.

“Please visit your district level officers and get details of the various schemes to develop the district thereby developing Manipur,” he added.
